Volume 5: The Young Wolf Seeks Home Chapter 82 An evil secret organization has set its sights on a man's body...
A few hours later, on the top floor of the Afterlife Bar, the reunited secret group was discussing what Mason had just mentioned.
The old man came as Bruce Wayne to inspect his new investment and to have a date with a popular movie star at the Afterlife Bar. Flash was a young man who came to have fun, and Mr. Clark Kent, a reporter for the Daily Planet, came to Gotham to have some fun during his break from sports interviews.
Well, he had already reported this to "Reporter-Man" Louise Lane in advance.
There's no way. It's always difficult for an old man who's married and has children to come to the bar alone to get his family's understanding. Alas, apart from the sour happiness, what does marriage bring to men?
"It is impossible to convince the leaders of all forces to accept the plan of transforming this world. Just the plan to build a device that can reverse the Earth's magnetic poles is impossible to pass."
The master looked at the text displayed on the PDA in his hand and said in a low voice:
“There’s no need to even try. Our world doesn’t have a clear understanding of the impact event. They don’t know that destruction is happening in the outside world.
Unless they see it with their own eyes, by then it will be too late.”
"We need a suitable opportunity to inform the public of the seriousness of the situation."
Wearing the famous "Kryptonian camouflage glasses", Superman unbuttoned his suit and looked at Mason Cooper with a strange expression while saying:
"It would be best if the situation could be controlled to a low-intensity conflict."
"You want to take all the good things for yourself."
Mason complained:
"Either open or transparent, Clark, you are a famous journalist, you should know that 'open and transparent' is a pseudo-concept in journalism and communication.
But the opportunity you mentioned is probably not too far away.
After the Skrulls ' secret invasion was ended by you, the Star Society and the Cleaners would inevitably seek opportunities to launch a head-on war, just like the Apocalypse invasion that happened in this world several years ago.
By that time, there will be no need for you to persuade them, as all countries and forces will take the initiative to seek ways to save themselves, and it will be natural to make this plan public at that time.
It can also help improve the public's impression of the Justice League as a reliable organization."
The master nodded at this suggestion.
As a pacifist, Dachao was naturally a little worried about the possible casualties, but he also knew that perfection could not be demanded between survival and destruction, so he was very restrained and did not express his objection.
The only one who had doubts about this was Xiao Shan.
But he also starts from a technical perspective, just like Worry and the Green Goblin.
He held a glass of juice in his hand and flipped through the printed documents at superluminal speed with his other hand. He said:
"After the impact reaches the second stage, there will be a plane compression. If this problem is not resolved, then what awaits us will be a meaningless failure."
“This is the second topic I want to talk about today.”
Mason waved his hand and said to Xiao Shan:
"Speed Force Matrix! Find a way to connect the two worlds that are about to collide with the Speed Force network, so that they become a whole in terms of time. At the same time, through the operation of the matrix, we can reduce the time of the plane compression explosion, so as to gain opportunities for subsequent operations.
The worst outcome of this plan is that the timeline will be intercepted and pulled back to the time point before the disaster, just like in War World.
As for how to eliminate this pressure of plane squeezing...
I don’t have a specific plan yet, but I have commissioned my fellow researchers at Fox Nest to study this as an important topic, and I believe they will give us an answer.
The most important thing is that we still have time and we can continue to prepare.”
The atmosphere in the office fell silent. In the silence, the master looked around and said:
“The Utopia solution is the most complete and feasible of all the suggestions and scenarios I have seen so far.
If we really get to the point where we need to take a gamble, then I would recommend this option!
What do you think? "
"I also think it is the most feasible. Besides, their data is complete and the experimental process is perfect. There is nothing wrong with it. At least it is much more reliable than the various plans I have come up with."
Xiao Shan took a sip of juice and raised his hand to show his support.
Dachao was still in doubt, but he finally nodded and said:
"I have no objection."
"'Support' and 'not oppose' are two different concepts, Clark."
Mason raised his eyebrows and asked:
"You still think the risk is too great, don't you?"
"But I can't come up with a solution, Mason. At least you have a plan that looks pretty good, so I won't object."
Dachao expressed his thoughts very honestly.
This issue has come to an end. Next, the Wayne Group will begin to secretly manufacture a world stabilizer driven by magnetic field enhancement. This is a long-term plan, and there is no practical significance in discussing it too much now.
"You have to ask Kara to come back."
After finishing the business, Superman, who met Mason for the first time in a non-combat situation, pushed his glasses and said to Mason very seriously:
"I told Martha that Kara was just traveling, but after more than 20 days of no news, Martha began to get suspicious, so my cousin had to show up at the farm.
Xiao Qiao also kept asking me where his aunt had gone. I couldn’t always lie to my son.”
"Okay, her next mission is still a few days away, I'll ask her to come back."
Mason nodded, looked at the master again, and said:
“Their performance is actually quite good. Especially after experiencing the destruction of the world, their mentality has been adjusted. Since Kara is coming back, why not let everyone else come and show up.
Of course, we have to do it in secret.”
"Barry and I are in charge of this."
The master agreed, and Xiao Shan had no objection. He was a little crazy looking at that cosmic treadmill all day, and maybe he should give himself a day off to travel around and relax.
"One more thing."
The master looked at the luxurious watch on his wrist. When the hands were about to reach the hour, he raised his head and said to Mason:
"We have a new member in our little group. I invite him to come here..."
"bite"
The communicator on Mason's desk rang, and Miss Huazi's sweet voice rang out, reporting:
"Sir, a man who claims to be Oliver Queen said he has a business appointment with you."
"Please ask him to come up."
Mason glanced at the old man and answered the communicator.
Then he said in surprise:
"I thought you were going to pull Diana into our little gang first. Do you think Wonder Woman isn't a good fit to join at this time?"
"No, it's because something went wrong on Amazon Island."
Dachao explained:
“Diana’s hometown was attacked by unidentified people a few days ago. The temple that enshrines the heritage of the gods was invaded. It is said that at least one set of Olympus armor and many weapons are missing.
Wonder Woman has to rush back to deal with this matter.
She left in a hurry and seemed to be hiding something from us."
“I see.”
Mason touched his chin thoughtfully, wondering if it was the War Queen under the old man's command who had sneaked onto the island.
With that guy's perverse personality, he might indeed dig up people's ancestral graves to take weapons. Her own armor and weapons had been melted by Mason to study the characteristics and inscription features of the Olympian divine metal.
But this is not to show that Mason is a bad guy. It's mainly because the war queen, whose figure has shrunk severely, can no longer support her originally charming battle suit.
This has to be said to be a sad story.
A few minutes later, Oliver, dressed very similar to Bruce Wayne in playboy form, walked in.
This man, who is also the heir to a large group, also disguises himself as a playboy and a rich second-generation, is also a superhero secretly, and also has a difficult superhero girlfriend, is not in a very good mood.
He walked into the office with a cane, and when he saw Mason smiling at him, he immediately grabbed the cane and swung it, and a simple bow jumped into his palm.
"I knew it!"
Oliver, whose leg bones were removed by Mason before, gritted his teeth and said:
"Batman is a big asshole! And you are a little asshole. You are all from the same family. You are in collusion to mess with us!"
"Uh, do you need me to remind you?"
Mason certainly knew where the Green Arrow's anger came from. He held the teacup and said casually:
"Your girlfriend was replaced long before I joined the Bat-Family, and it's not my fault that you slept with a green alien for several months, so don't take it out on me.
I wish you weren't playing some more private things with her... well, looking at that amused frown on your face, I bet you must be feeling like you've eaten a fly."
"Shut up! You poisonous little bat!"
Green Arrow put down his simple bow, but the sadness on his face became even worse. It was obviously because he learned from Batman that his girlfriend was an alien hybrid, which caused him to have a complicated mentality.
This is probably the most direct reason why the old man persuaded Green Arrow to join this small team.
"We have to find a way."
Oliver sat down next to Xiao Shan, took the juice Xiao Shan handed over with a look of pity, and said in a cold tone:
“That alien is driving me crazy!
I now suspect everyone I meet on the street is a Skrull bastard in disguise. This morning I almost attacked my sister because she was wearing a long dress that she didn't like at all.
I was on edge all the time, and it’s hard for you to understand how that felt.”
"But the Order needs your dedication, Oliver."
Mason said seriously:
"We need someone to conduct a close investigation of the Skrull bastard disguised as Ms. Black Canary in order to understand her network of connections. You are undoubtedly the most suitable person among those we can find now."
"Close-range reconnaissance? That's easy for you to say!"
Oliver complained:
"I feel sick just seeing her now... and I have to hold back my murderous intent all the time, oh my god."
"Look at it from a bright perspective, this isn't all bad."
Mason reminded:
"I believe that everyone has darkness in their heart, and you always have some bad thoughts that you cannot do to your girlfriend, but you can let it go now.
Although she has a face of Dana, she is an enemy!
There is no need to talk about martial ethics when dealing with the enemy.
For example, I have here a special isotope that Firestorm has just created. Only our special instruments can track it, and it cannot be detected in any other way.
Oliver, you need to find a chance to spray it on that Skrull bastard, preferably multiple places for easy tracking and detection."
He took out a small jar and placed it on the table, then said to Green Arrow:
"After you've done this, you can create an accident to make yourself 'disappear' and then sneak behind the scenes. I have prepared an action team for you to assist with your covert operation.
And to help you accomplish this 'difficult task', I have prepared this for you."
The alchemist took out another box of something like candy and placed it on the table. He said to Oliver, who looked unhappy:
"It only takes one to turn her into a wild animal, just one to turn you into a wild animal, relax, it's for a just cause.
We need your body!"
"Depend on!"
The well-educated rich second-generation couldn't help but swear at this moment, and the moral role model Dachao couldn't bear to look at it and covered his eyes.
The old man sat there drinking tea with an expressionless face, and was just glad that Selina and Talia had joined Team K and had not been replaced by the Skrulls, otherwise this damn mission would have fallen on him.
Only the ignorant little Flash didn't know what Mason and Oliver were talking about? What weird things were these obscene adults talking about?
I don't understand but why does it feel so dirty?
Alas, this child is too naive. No wonder he couldn’t conquer Alice for so long.
——
As a well-known stage magician in the circle, Zatanna Zatara's performance tonight once again won a full house of applause, and also kicked off the passionate and bustling Afterlife Bar tonight.
After the performance, Zuckerberg removed her makeup in the dressing room specially set up for her in the bar. Just as she cleaned the glitter off her clothes, the secret compartment at the back of the dressing room was pushed open.
Mason, wearing a windbreaker, walked out, and the phoenix Fawkes on his shoulder also stopped arguing with his owner about how much magic flames he should eat tonight.
The phoenix's attention was focused on the boldly dressed female magician in front of it. It seemed that it sensed some remnants of its lost hometown from her.
Being targeted by a young phoenix made Xiao Zha feel pressured.
More importantly, the scrutiny of a high-level magical creature quickly triggered the vigilance of its "kind". In the flash of a vortex-shaped portal, Polly, a unicorn with a strange gray-black horn, rushed out with a hiss.
It jumped around Xiaoza a few times like a pony, then lowered its head and aimed its horn at Fox on Mason's shoulder, imitating the movement of a charging warhorse.
The two magical creatures from the same origin confronted each other , like a dispute between two cubs.
"You just showed up so openly, aren't you afraid that I will notify Doctor Fate to arrest you?"
Xiao Zu sat on the chair and continued to remove her makeup. She stroked her long straight black hair and said:
"You know that the bounty on you has not been terminated in the magic circle."
"I'm more curious about why Doctor Fate went out personally to capture a group of escaped wizards hiding in this world, but there is still no news after such a long time?"
Mason stood ten meters away from Zuckerberg in a gentlemanly manner and whispered:
“As for the formation of our ‘Justice League Dark’, I said I would bring Zhakang with me this time, but he ran into a little trouble.
I was about to set out to help him.
Perhaps you could give me some good news so I can pass it on to him?"
"A little trouble?"
Zatanna stood up and said suspiciously while calming the grumpy little unicorn at her feet who was about to shoot some kind of rainbow ray from his horn:
"Why do I feel like something bad is happening to John now? Mason, tell me honestly, will I ever see my ex-boyfriend who deserves to go to hell again in this life?"
"I will try my best to bring him back intact."
Mason replied.
He did not deny Zuckerberg's guess, which made the latter's expression a little worried, but as a fairly independent and outstanding woman, Zuckerberg quickly stabilized her emotions and said to Mason in a businesslike manner:
“We have invited Shazam to join this magical alliance. Bruce also informed me about the problem of Skrull spies. This is a breakthrough point that may explain the disappearance of those wizards.
Perhaps the Skrulls have already infiltrated our ranks before we even noticed.
Next, we plan to recruit more trustworthy members and investigate this matter on our own without informing Doctor Fate. I think we will gain something."
"Um."
Mason nodded, he reached out and took out a bag and handed it to Zack, who took out a replica of the Staff of Hermes from it. The energy attached to the staff surprised Zack.
She said:
"These...did you rob some god's cache of weapons and armor?"
"I did it myself, so consider them as aid."
Mason waved his hand and explained:
"I will be responsible for the logistical support of the Dark Justice League. You just need to charge forward at the front. If you encounter any problems, you can come to me.
Now we are all one family.”
After saying that, Mason was about to turn around and leave. Zha, who was carrying a bag of magic weapons, hesitated for a moment. She bent down and picked up Little Pony. With a hint of worry in the latter's neighing, she said:
"Mason, please bring John back, okay? He still owes me a lot of explanations."
"He's my friend, and I'll do my best."
Mason called Fox back to stand on his shoulder, waved his hand without turning his head and said:
"Please be careful too."
